Feature & Follow is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee & Alison Can Read. The purpose is to meet new people and gain more followers in the book blogging community. If
this is your first time here, welcome! You are about to make some new
friends and gain new followers — but you have to know — the point of

Book Description:
A failed actress, twenty-something Julia McCarthy begins writing a fictionalized blog as a form of self-therapy. Based on her carefree summers at her grandparents' farm, she never expects her little experiment to garner a viral following, but it does. Boy, does it ever.

Now, with thousands of loyal blog followers, and a syndication deal with the Chicago Herald, Julia is approached by GreenTV to adapt her blog into a TV show. The producers see her as a "Rachel Ray on the Prairie-type". She sees herself as a fraud.

In Julia's fictional world, she's successful. She can pay her bills on time. Heck, she even has a fictional gorgeous husband and charming little boy. Ready to realize her dreams, Julia returns to her grandparents' farm to shoot the TV pilot.

Brad Taylor is definitely not her type: he’s rugged, sensible, and oh-so smug about learning that Julia’s blog is a farce. As the manager of her grandparent’s farm, Brad doesn’t have time to deal with whimsical women who don’t even know how to cook.

Julia can't allow her attraction to Brad to distract her, not when her dreams are about to come true. But are these truly her dreams, her good life?

Will she recover and be able to allow herself to love again or continue pushing away the one person that would give anything to be able to heal her and himself by loving one another.

Blurb:
Riley tends to fall hard and fast for the guys she dates, and it never ends with the wedding bells she expects. Tired of the heartbreak and unsure if she even knows what love is, she swears off unreliable things like dating and trying to find that elusive happily-ever-after spark. Focusing on her art seems like the perfect distraction, except she’s missing the physical side of being half a couple. Fortunately, her best friend, Zane, is happy to model for her drawings and tie her up in the bedroom, with no expectations. Just fun.

Zane’s granddad raised him with the belief that people who bring joy to the world should be protected at all costs. For Zane, his best friend Riley is one of those people, and he definitely doesn't mind when making her happy involves helping her pursue her creative dream and some sport sex with a hint of kink. They can have fun, and he can keep her from falling for the next idiot who comes along while she searches for her Prince Charming.

Regardless of her resolution, as things heat up between them, Riley finds herself falling again. She needs to decide if she’s in love with the idea of being in love, or if—despite Zane’s insistence that she deserves someone better—what she feels for him is the real thing. If she can’t learn to trust her heart and convince Zane he’s exactly what she needs, it will obliterate a lifelong friendship.

Petrova the Pummeler is
the warrior of all warriors, the master of the mystical orbs, until a
fateful match leaves her damaged and unable to continue fighting as a
warrior. Now she must take her place as a master in the Arena Games and
train her own students to become Arena Warriors.

Ever since super star,
Arial Oakley, could remember, she's been in love with her hunky co-star
Bryce Valentine. The only problem: Bryce has been in a relationship with
another ac-tress for quite some time. Not wanting to be “the other
woman”, Arial never pursued any of her feelings for him despite how well
they connected.

When Bryce suddenly becomes single, both of
their worlds are flipped upside down. To help him nurse his aching
heart, Arial invites him back home to her family farm for some much
needed peace and quiet from the paparazzi.

Serengard has been under
Orion rule for centuries — centuries of insufferable adherence to laws
and traditions that its people no longer believe in. Raised by her
scholarly grandfather in the fiery southern city of Neroi, Trzl is
dedicated to turning the monarchy into a free society where knowledge is
king and no one has to be subject to the whims of an Orion.

As
the rebellion escalates, her choices have an eerie impact on the
revolution at large, elevating her to a position of influence she has
only dreamed of attaining. But there are downsides to her new power that
entangle her in a dangerous web of emotions, appearances and alliances.
Even as she plays to the attractions of Hodran, a rich nobleman who
wants to aid her cause, she is drawn to Mikel, a loyalist farmer who
hates the rebellion but just might be winning her heart.

Every werewolf has an instinct. Lyssa's is to submit.
While the human part of Lyssa rebels against the iron fist of her domineering alpha, the wolf in her is unable to resist his every advance. Caught between the primal draw of her instincts and her desire for independence, she finds comfort in the company of Hawthorne, another wolf living on the outskirts of the pack hierarchy. But as Lyssa's attraction to Hawthorne grows, she realizes that his instinct may prove to be even more dangerous than her own.

The alpha is watching them, and Lyssa must learn to control her animal nature, or be consumed by it.

On Lily Sanderson’s eighteenth birthday she’ll become just a girl—still a mergirl, true, but signing the renunciation will ink Princess Waterlily of Thalassinia out of existence. That leaves plain old Lily living on land, dating the boy she loves, and trying to master this being-human thing once and for all.

Now that Lily and Quince are together, mer bond or not, she’s almost content to give up her place in the royal succession of Thalassinia. But just when she thinks she has everything figured out, the waves start to get rough. Lily’s father sends a certain whirlpool-stirring cousin to stay with her on land. What did Doe do to get herself exiled from Thalassinia and stuck in terraped form, when everyone knows how much she hates humans? And why why why is she batting her eyelashes at Lily’s former crush, Brody?
